Cantaloupe Mousse

Sauternes and melon fluff spooned over ripe cubes of cantaloupe make a fabulously mature dessert for a late-afternoon luncheon. When the fruits are at their aromatic best and you want a dessert that is not overly sweet or directed at the kiddies, this comes together with remarkable sophistication.

Cooks' Note

If you want some pretty silliness when you serve this, use hollowed-out melon wedges as bowls.
